He was talking about finding a needle in a haystack, but in reality, he wasn't completely looking for a needle in a haystack. Those who were suspicious were just those few people, and when the time came, coupled with the information provided by the Liucheng Garden Squadron Leader, they carefully searched the area one by one.

Lu Jingran nodded his head, "That may not be a bad idea, right after Mr. Bai died, I sent Ban Xia to check on Mr. Bai's residence, but Mr. Bai has always been cautious, so other than the few letters that he and I usually write, there are only Ban Xia and the letters that the secret guards have handed over, there are no longer anything wrong with the ones beside it."

Back then, my grandfather had already given him a huge amount of land and money when he was by my side, but at that time, he had also made a written contract that the Mr. Bai would have to support me for life. I still remember what the Mr. Bai said at that time, that he was not related to me in any way, that he would not take the money with him, and that even if my grandfather did not give him these things, he would still nurture me to adulthood.

"All these years, I have discovered that Mr. Bai is not like how he says he is, lacking in desire, and even more so, bought a few residences. Since that's the case, then he definitely will not work for the people behind him for nothing, regardless of whether it's money or land, there will always be something for him. But where did he put all these things?"

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "So I plan to let Ban Xia go to Mr. Bai's hometown to look around. I might be able to find some news, and even make them visit the place where Mr. Bai often goes, so I can ask around as well … Oh right, Sister Shu, do you remember the characteristics of the woman you saw at the Liucheng Garden that day? "

Lin Shu shook her head, "At that time, the theatre was in a mess. I only glanced at the woman and saw that she had left. And she's not very tall. Maybe I'll be able to recognize her when I see her back again. " However, during this period of time, she didn't even see the shadow of the middle-aged woman.

Lu Jingran smiled: "Forget it, you don't have to go this far first. I just told you the whole story to make you feel at ease, and it doesn't make sense for me to make you worry about me even more! From now on, you can talk to Grandmother whenever you have nothing to do. You can bring your mother-in-law over to accompany you, or go to the Huaiyin Palace to chat with your Third Sis.

The thought of his most important treasure going out to be talked about made him feel uncomfortable.

Lin Shu naturally responded as she slept exceptionally soundly on Lu Jingran's arm.

On the second day, Lu Jingran woke up and went out early as usual. He only said that Lu Jingran had not practiced at all this morning, and directly brought him out of the room. "Madam, before leaving, I had instructed this servant that it is because you are ill now. First, you need to take good care of yourself, and secondly, you need to make up for it. In the future, you will have to use a bowl of Bloody Swallow Porridge sooner or later, and this servant will keep an eye on you."

Lin Shu frowned, she never liked eating such sweet things, even though she had told the kitchen to keep less sugar inside, it was still quite sweet, not to mention this blood swallow congee, she did not like eating it, "Forget it, I do not like eating these, eating other nourishing things is the same too."

Pearl laughed: "Uncle also knows that you never eat Blood Swallow Porridge, and even invited the cook who specializes in cooking medicine from Rongshou Hall to come over everyday. After cooking the blood Swallow porridge, she went back and talked about how this cook from Rongshou Hall's kitchen is skilled, and how the things she cooks do not taste good …"

This was a bit too much work!

Lin Shu shook his head, "How can that be? "Mother is always around Grandmother, and now that Grandmother still has a bit of a cough, she should be using soup to her heart's content. What if that mother comes to our Banyan Garden often and delays Grandmother's time to cook the soup?"

"This was also instructed by the Old Ancestor. After some thought, the Old Ancestor agreed." The Old Ancestor treated everyone well, but when the Old Master and the Eldest Wife are at their best, the Old Lady always blames the Old Ancestor for being biased, but we still have to see if the Old Ancestor's bias is worth it. "The Old Ancestor said that since you have raised your body up, she should be at ease with the Old Master and the beautiful ones.

"Not to mention that mother who makes medicinal food has a disciple, so every day, when mother stews the medicinal food on a small stove and instructs others to watch over it, it wouldn't take too much time for her to come to Banyan Garden to cook the blood swallow porridge for you. At that time, you can just give her a few more coins every month."

Lin Shu was much more relieved after hearing this. After using the Bloody Swallow Soup, she went to Rongshou Hall to pay respects to the Old Ancestor.

Even though the Old Ancestor had already told her not to pay him a visit today, she did not feel that pampered at all, and wanted to chat with the Old Ancestor. Thus, she left with Yun Zhu and Dou.

When she arrived at Rongshou Hall, the sky was bright and full of sunlight. The Old Ancestor was pruning the flowers, even though he was complaining about her coming over, his face was filled with happiness.

In fact, the Old Ancestor also felt very bitter in his heart. His eldest son died on the battlefield right after getting married, and his second son died without a full corpse. Now, only his youngest son and his concubine had given birth to their son. As for the bastard who gave birth to his son, she knew that he was filial, but the second son's wife was also not someone who was easy to deal with, not to mention that Lu Minzhi.

Earlier on, she had only given a good piece of material to Lin Shu in front of him, so she had to make an excuse to not be happy and not come to greet her.

She had no intention of forcing it from the start.

All these years, Lu Minzhi had only gotten a few good things from her? Could it be that she had to follow Lu Minzhi wherever she went? This was truly strange. She could give her own things to whoever she wanted, and she could even tolerate a junior's criticism?

Even the Young Madam Zhang did not have such guts, but this Lu Minzhi had become so accustomed to being lawless!

"In the past, when she was young, she would always avoid attending to these flowers and grasses, afraid of hurting her own hands, afraid that she would dirty her new clothes. Now that she is old, she has the patience to watch the flowers and plants she has been attending to grow better, and her heart is feeling good."

"If you ask me to kneel in the buddhist hall every day, I won't be able to do it. I always feel like the heavens have eyes, no matter who's good and who's bad, even if we don't understand, the heavens won't be able to understand. Some people are full of righteousness and morality, but their hands are full of dirty things. Even if they were to throw money inside the temple every day, the heavens would probably ignore her! "

Lin Shu naturally understood the meaning behind her words, "Grandmother is right."

Just now, when she came to Rongshou Hall, she coincidentally saw that Young Madam Zhang had just left, and when Young Madam Zhang left, her face was filled with anger.

The Old Ancestor had also told the Nanny Bai that she had no intention to see him today, but to hang him up for more than an hour, the Young Madam Zhang couldn't wait any longer and decided to inform him that she would come back later.

Why is Young Madam Zhang so happy?

Furthermore, she had just married into the National Duke Ning Palace, and didn't even have a day's worth of rules for the Old Ancestor. Now that she had married into the National Duke Ning Palace for almost twenty years, and even had a son by her side, logically speaking, whenever she had a son, he would always stand up straight. The Old Ancestor's actions were clearly aimed at her face!

Lin Shu knew in his heart, but pretended not to know, "I feel that grandmother's words are reasonable. As long as there is a Buddha in my heart, even if I do good every day, the heavens would still be able to see it, not to mention the fact that the fragrance of the incense in the buddhist hall is too strong, it would be bad for my body.

It was just like when she was imprisoned in Duke Chengan's Palace in her previous life. In the end, her entire body was filled with pain and every night, she would feel so painful that she would not be able to sleep.

Who said anything! "I didn't expect my daughter-in-law to be so smart!" The Old Ancestor handed the scissors over to her with a smile. Lin Shu took the scissors and placed them on a tray held by the Maid.

The Old Ancestor walked slowly, and Lin Shu's footsteps were also slow.

When the two of them went into the inner room to wash their hands, Maid brought a few plates of pastries over. The Old Ancestor smiled and picked one up: "How is your fifth sister?"

Previously, Lin Lian had become the laughingstock of the capital. There was no one in the capital who did not know about this.

Lin Shu also knew that the Old Ancestor was talking to her, that was because she was close to him, if he did not say anything, the Old Ancestor would have never said these words to the Young Madam Zhang, "It seems like my fifth sister will be carrying him to the Duke Chengan Palace in a few days, after all, she and the County Prince Palace has already made such an ugly scene, even if the Duke Chengan Palace did not make any movements, it is for fear that the Chen Family might be unhappy and the new Duke Chengan would be unhappy, but if the matter is dragged on for too long, no one will look good."

In fact, the Chen Family Second Miss only wanted to establish some sort of rule for Lin Lian. If she really did not want Lin Lian to enter the, the reputation of the Chen Family, Duke Chengan Palace and Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion would be ruined.

After all, the Chen Family's Second Miss was the Eighth Prince's Consort of her previous life. They were extremely intelligent, and such a person would not be sent over, because she had destroyed the reputations of three families by herself, and she would not do such a thing. Furthermore, she had only married Shao Shengping now, so how could she let Shao Shengping off just because of such a small matter?

Now that Lin Shu thought about Shao Shengping again, her heart was no longer in a turmoil. She only thought about the Chen family's Third Miss, then, would things change in this life? Would Shao Shengping live a good life with the Chen Family's Second Miss?
